Hnng finishing ny first reread of His Dark Materials and god younger me was so right to hate the ending. But like. Not for the same reasons. If Pullman wants to write a tragedy thats fine, I like tragedies now.
But good god is it contrived. Just like. So clear thst the universe us shaping itself specifically so that the ending is a big tearjerker. And then it still fails! There are like. An entire handful of solutions never brought up.
Angels can kill spectres! I think after saving free will for all sapient life, theyve earned an angel taking 1 day every 5 years to kill a spectre while they transfer between worlds.
And they dven admitted that they Could leave some (natural) openings, but wouldnt because then theyd spend their lives searching for them. Why not just...tell them where the most convenient one is, and leave it open? The angels alledgedly all feel for Lyra and Will, and wish it were otherwise. Why not do either of these 2 super easy solutions?
Hell, even if the angels are committed to their universe segregation (which is kinda a fucking weird moral for the series tbh), the series very explicitly has technology that lets you communicate across worlds, no knife requires. Sure it woukd stil suck, but at least theyd be able to talk. But that woukd ruin the totality of the tragedy, so everyone just conveniently forgets they exist.
Im Very salty if you couldnt tell. Still gonna read the sequels though.

I promised myself about a year ago that I would purchase and finish all the games labeled as the most difficult on the Nintendo Switch.
I wonder why I've been so angry lately...
